Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We're just waitin' for our man to come through with a plan
Of how the hell we turn this round and dig ourselves out of the ground
We don't really want to know things you claim to know
It could fall around our ears, might not hurt for years and years
[Verse 2]
We're just waitin' for our man to come through with a plan
Of how the hell we turn this round, dig ourselves out of the ground
We don't really want to know things you claim you know
It could fall around our ears, might not hurt for years and years
[Verse 3]
(We're just waitin', we're just waitin') Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(We're just waitin', we're just waitin') Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(We're just waitin', we're just waitin') Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(We're just waitin', we're just waitin') Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 4]
(We're just waitin', we're just waitin') Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(We're just waitin', we're just waitin') Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(We're just waitin', we're just waitin') Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(We're just waitin', we're just waitin') Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 5]
(We're just waitin' for our man) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(To come through with the plan)
(Of how the hell we turn this round) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Dig ourselves out of the ground)
(We don't really want to know) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Things you claim to know)
(It could fall around our ears) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Might not hurt for years and years)
[Verse 6]
(We're just waitin' for our man) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Of how the hell we turn this round) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Dig ourselves out of the ground)
(We don't really want to know) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Things you claim to know)
(It could fall around our ears) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Might not hurt for years and years)
